Primordial Era: The Ten Deadly Formations are Broken, Shen Gongbao Asks Me to Come Out of the Mounta

Previously, their attention was focused on the Immortal Realm, and they subconsciously ignored the Underworld.

This is normal. The Underworld is under the jurisdiction of the Peaceful and Forgetful Lady Meng Po, and it is also the stronghold of the Witch Clan, so it is not easy to make plans there.

In comparison, the primordial world is so vast, with its countless calamities and the great sects' fortunes; none of these are less important than plotting against the underworld.

However, times have changed. The primordial wilderness has been shattered, and the realm of immortals has been formed.

These three realms were created by the Dao Ancestor using his great supernatural powers to melt and shatter the primordial world. Compared with the original ancient primordial world, they are significantly smaller.

Furthermore, with the decline of spiritual energy, there are very few places left to make plans.

At this time, the importance of the Underworld was truly demonstrated.

In the chaotic Taiqing Heaven, the Supreme Being's gaze was indifferent, devoid of sorrow or joy, yet he secretly plotted in his heart.

But soon, he shook his head again.

Although plotting in the underworld could bring merit, the Ziwei Emperor and his disciples of the Jie Sect seized the initiative. Moreover, Xuandu was the only remaining member of the Jie Sect.

This is not a very easy thing to do.

However, Taishang did not give up. After a moment's thought, he had an idea.

He found it inconvenient to plan his schemes in the underworld, but the two in the West would certainly not let go of this "big piece of fat."

If the West plots against the Underworld, then his plot against the West is also tantamount to indirectly plotting against the Underworld.

Moreover, he had made some arrangements in advance during the Great Tribulation of the Investiture of the Gods, and now it was time to put them into action.

"Go and bring Naduobao here!"

After thinking it over, the Supreme Lord summoned the Yellow Turban Warriors and gave them his orders.

..................

Mount Sumeru, where Cundi and Jieyin sit serenely on a nine-grade golden lotus of merit, their bodies radiating Buddhist light that illuminates the entire Western ancestral temple.

Upon seeing Zhao Gongming leading his disciples to enter the Underworld first, he proclaimed this to the Heavenly Dao and gained merit.

While the two saints felt envious and jealous, they also felt that the merit that originally belonged to them had been stolen by Zhao Gongming.

You should know that they have been eyeing the underworld for a long time, but since Buddhism is newly established and has few disciples, it is not easy for them to make plans.

Who would have thought that Zhao Gongming would win first place?

Thinking of this, Zhunti also put his hands together and said, "Amitabha, senior brother, this humble monk sees that there are many sinful souls in the underworld who are unable to transcend!"

"May Buddha, in his compassion, save these departed souls and guide them to a better realm!"

Clearly, seeing Zhao Gongming amass a fortune in Heavenly Merit, they couldn't sit still any longer and their plans for the Underworld were also brought forward.

"Amitabha Buddha, it is out of compassion that this is how it should be!"

The guide wore a sorrowful expression, seemingly genuinely worried about the suffering souls in the underworld.

"In your opinion, Senior Brother, who would be suitable to send to the Underworld?"

"Amitabha Buddha, only Ksitigarbha, the direct successor of the Western Pure Land tradition, can do it!"

Upon hearing this, Zhunti immediately clasped his hands together and said, "Amitabha, Greatly Compassionate Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva!"

Such schemes in the underworld, those that truly benefit one's own disciples, should certainly be carried out by one's own personal disciples.

As for that Ziwei Emperor, although his power was astonishing...

However, he ultimately failed to attain sainthood, and the Netherworld, such a lucrative territory, was not something that the Jie Sect alone could easily devour.

As a Western religion, it's natural that they also want a piece of the pie!

In the chaotic starry sky, after seeing the disciples of the Jie Sect enter the Netherworld and reap great merit, the Primordial Heavenly Lord's eyes even turned red.

Looking again at the fortune of the Jie Sect, it was found that it had increased even more than during the Great Calamity.

During the great calamity of the Investiture of the Gods, the disciples of the Jie Sect were listed, the Three Pure Ones were no more, and their fortunes were naturally affected.

Who would have thought that in such a short time, it not only recovered completely, but even made further progress.

When Yuanshi Tianzun turned his head to look at his own fortune, his vision went black, and he almost fainted from anger on the spot.

They saw that their own fortune was waning. After completing their tribulations, not only did it not improve, but it shrank even further due to the betrayal of the four disciples, including Samantabhadra.

This situation filled Yuanshi Tianzun with secret resentment.

On what grounds?

Why should Tongtian, who did nothing but have a good disciple, be allowed to stand aside and watch the Jie Sect rise again?

In contrast, he himself schemed extensively during the Great Tribulation, even disregarding brotherhood, ultimately resulting in the decline of the sect's fortunes and the defection of its disciples.

Upon seeing the remaining disciples of the Chan Sect, Yuanshi Tianzun was even more furious.

As one of the Four Emperors of Heaven, how much has Zhao Gongming of the Human Cult done since he became the Ziwei Emperor?

He was appointed a Star God to manage the starry sky, and now he is leading the disciples of the Jie Sect to reside in the Underworld to reap merit and fortune and gain an advantage.

Looking at his own disciples, they held the titles of the Four Emperors, but all they did was shut themselves in to cultivate, and did nothing else.

Now is not the time to compete in cultivation. By using the power of the Four Emperors, everyone has an equal chance. How can we possibly lose?

As the saying goes, the more you hold back, the angrier you get.

The Primordial Celestial Venerable immediately sent a message to Guang Chengzi, who was serving as the Great Emperor of the Eastern Pole, and the Immortal Elder of the Southern Pole, who was serving as the Great Emperor of Longevity: "Guang Chengzi, Southern Pole, you are cultivating, but you must not forget the great teachings and destiny!"

Now that you have secured one of the four imperial positions, you should naturally shoulder the heavy responsibilities and diligently perform your duties.

The meaning of Yuanshi Tianzun is very clear: look at other people's disciples, they are also among the Four Emperors, but they have done so much more.

Now look at yourselves. Stop focusing on cultivation and instead use your four powers to plan for the future of the great sect. That is the most important thing.

Here, the Antarctic Immortal agreed, but with a wry smile on his face. Although he, the Antarctic Longevity Emperor, was well-liked in the Heavenly Court, it was only because he was detached from worldly affairs.

If they really started planning, their situation wouldn't be the same as it is now.

Guang Chengzi outwardly agreed, but inwardly he was even more displeased.

Others might not know about his Four Emperors title, but surely his own master knows it's something Zhao Gongming used to disgust the Chan Sect.

After all, the power of the Eastern Great Emperor clashes with that of Haotian. How could he, a Taiyi Golden Immortal, possibly seize power from Haotian?

Yes, ever since he fell from his cultivation level and died on the list, his cultivation as the top disciple of the Jade Void Sect has not recovered.

This caused Guang Chengzi to harbor a deep-seated resentment towards his master, Yuanshi.

If it weren't for his master sending him to visit Biyou Palace and triggering the Investiture of the Gods, he wouldn't have ended up like this today.

Meanwhile, in Nuwa's palace, the sage Nuwa, who sat languidly on her jade bed, suddenly became lively when she saw the disciples of the Jie Sect accumulating merit upon her.

I was wondering if I should ask them to lend a hand to the demon race?

The disciples of the Jie Sect are mainly demon cultivators, so they probably don't have any prejudice against demons.

But how should I bring it up?

The disciples of the Jie Sect naturally lacked merit and good fortune.

Although he was a sage of the Heavenly Dao, it would be unreasonable to ask for things without giving him some benefits.

However, it seems that Zhao Gongming has everything he needs right now. What should I offer to entice him?
